Moss: Skinny Motto Out Of Context (UKPA) – 3 hours ago
Moss has claimed her use of a phrase in which she suggested it was better to be skinny than eat had been taken out of context.Campaigners had condemned the star's words after she said in an interview that one of her life mottos was a slogan sometimes used by groups who glamorise eating disorders.
But representatives of the famously slender star said she did not support it as a lifestyle choice.
Kate's comment came from an interview with a fashion website Women's Wear Daily (WWD) in which she was asked if she had any mottos.
The supermodel, 35, said: "There are loads. There's 'nothing tastes as good as skinny feels'. That's one of them."
But it has fuelled further controversy over the 'size zero' debate which has rumbled on in the fashion world. Many campaigners have accused the industry of encouraging young women to starve themselves and having an impact on those vulnerable to eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia.
However a spokeswoman for Kate Moss's model agency Storm said: "This was part of a longer answer Kate gave during a wider ranging interview - which has unfortunately been taken out of context and completely misrepresented.
"For the record - Kate does not support this as a lifestyle choice."Morehttp://www.google.com/hostednews/ukpress/article/ALeqM5hW5pfAdmv011W2exBvUV9bcG7sUg
